What were they thinking... Sometimes I think we humans are just too dumb to run this place. The towel was a nice touch though, so he wouldn't hurt himself... Is there any other way this could have turned out? Well, I guess he could have ended up with his head stuck through the ceiling...

No kidding, everyone else is...

FWIW - and making myself a hypocrite - I don't like seeing stuff posted of people getting hurt, passed off as entertainment. Hopefully he emerged from this a bit smarter and with no broken bones.

That was hilarious. It's amazing he didn't shatter his spine.

Not so sure he didn't. Pretty sure in the slo-mo at the end he made contact with the ceiling.

The minute the started the set up I said out loud "oh, no! He's not going to do this!" Of course that made my wife and kids come over to see too.

Not to mention the cement floor afterward.

What? Why would...? I don't...?

I mean, what did he think was going to happen? Assuming he didn't intend to launch himself into the ceiling, what did he intend to do? Man, I grew up with people like this (apparently Russia is a lot like Appalachia). I never did understand this kind of thing.
